Michele’s List is an invaluable compilation of the most promising local online-native news sites trying to make a go of it in this disrupted age. Compiled by Michele McLellan, the list’s admissions criteria are that a site is “progressing on three fronts — content, engagement and revenue.” McLellan periodically surveys the list’s members on a host of issues; we wrote about her most recent findings earlier this month.

But along with the interesting summary findings, McLellan also provides the individual survey results, which feature more detailed information on each local site. (You can get that data here.) When I got a copy, I looked at one question in particular asked of the startups:

In what range was the total revenue of your site in the last calendar year?

Revenue numbers are sometimes hard to come by in this space, so I was grateful that these local sites were willing to share their information, if only in broad ranges. Some of the higher-revenue sites are ones that get a decent amount of attention — the New Haven Independent, Baristanet, VTDigger, Technically Philly. But there are also some who don’t get much notice outside of their local readership.

Pulled from the survey data, here’s the full listing, broken down by revenue level. (Street Fight’s Tom Grubisch also has some detail on the top tiers.) To distinguish between different kinds of local news sites, I’ve bolded those sites who said producing “investigative or watchdog journalism” was the site’s “primary focus.” I’ve italicized those who said that sort of work is something they produce “occasionally.” A site that is neither bold nor in italics said investigative or watchdog journalism is something they produce either infrequently or not at all. (All such statements are self-reported; I’m sure some might quibble with some of them.)

(One other note: The sites listed below are those that responded to McLellan’s survey — not a complete census of all local news sites. There are, of course, other local sites making significant revenues — The Texas Tribune, MinnPost, Voice of San Diego, and Chalkbeat are some that come to mind.)

What I would be curious to know is the background of those running the sites that might be struggling on the revenue side. There seems to be a sense that many of these sites are run by journalists who may not have sales or business development experience to really see revenues take off.
